Baboons - The Whole Story 11/13 - Go Wild

One primate has colonized more of Africa than any other. The versatile baboon is at home everywhere from rainforest to mountaintop. Almost anywhere that has food, water, and safe shelter at night is baboon territory, making them the most successful, diverse and widespread monkey around.
From the hamadryas baboons in the Somali desert to the chacmas of South Africa’s Drakensberg mountains, these primates can adapt to the demands of most any habitat.
In the dark, shaded world of the West African rainforest, the most powerful baboon of all - the mandrill - sports a spectacularly colorful face mask. His vibrant colors attract the opposite sex and announce his rank to other males. The brighter the better in mandrill society.
At the southern tip of Africa, baboons have acquired a taste that few primates other than humans share. While rich in variety, plants here hold little nutritional value. So, when the tide is out, the local chacmas are down on the seashore finding crabs, mussels, and other small sea creatures to supplement their diet.
Baboon society is a complex web of politics and alliances. Females are the majority, and center of the web. Their place in society is fixed at birth, and almost never changes. Males, on the other hand, live their lives as one long struggle to move up the hierarchy.
Surprisingly, research has recently shown that baboons are capable of altruism. In Ghana, a patas monkey that became lost when it was still very young took up residence with a local troop of baboons. It was adopted and accepted as one of the family, playing, eating and grooming alongside their own young.
Altruism is usually seen as a uniquely human virtue, but baboons echo human society in number of ways. Socially advanced and sophisticated, adaptable and versatile, devoted to their young, fearless in defense of the group - all of these characteristics shared with their primate cousins, the humans.

I love how documentaries just reuse footage from other documentaries, and then claim something completely different is happening. For example, around the 27:15 mark, there is a baboon fighting with a vervet monkey. In another, newer baboon documentary, the same footage was used to show how baboons often play around with vervet monkeys (as if it weren't a serious fight). This isn't the first time I've noticed them doing this. They did it with several Meerkat documentaries. Using footage from Meerkat manor in their documentary... It's interesting because the documentary said something completely different from what the Meerkat Manor show said was happening.

NOPE, SORRY! They lack the brain power to produce any thoughts beyond their basic survival skills! Don't understand why people such as yourself, are constantly anthropomorphizing primate behavior. I guess one sees what they want, when they are devoid of true knowledge.

[@GGdmk]

@@breshannondevereaux5712 I respectfully disagree. First, the ability to form thoughts is entirely different than the ability to store knowledge. Secondly, knowledge is the retention of ideas, such as recognizing cause and effect. Third, I’ve seen a low ranking Macaque mother send her young baby amongst high ranking individuals whom were being fed by a human feeder. The mother, being low ranking, would be attacked unless the higher ranking monkeys were full and moving on, so she let the baby fill her pouches, then she grabbed the baby, took the baby to a safe place and literally forcefully removed all the food from the baby’s pouches and ate it. This monkey did this every day to obtain food without being attacked. That is a cognitive thought process. Lastly, my comment stated that one could ALMOST see them thinking in SIMILAR ways to humans. Your response to my suggestion that there are similarities to humans suggests you just may feel threatened by the simple idea that a monkey is an intelligent creature. Pigs are intelligent, crows are intelligent, and octopuses are intelligent. Also, some monkeys and all apes are extremely genetically close to humans. Monkeys may, or may not, possess the emotions that apes and humans possess, but some monkeys are capable of self awareness when looking into a mirror. That fact alone proves that they are capable of complex thought processing, far more than you may be aware.

[@breshannondevereaux5712]

@@GGdmk PERHAPS. However, your accusation of me being threatened is not correct at all. I do not have a problem with a creature possessing intelligence or sentience. I DO have a problem with monkeys ( especially macaques) being compared or judged by human standards. I also have an issue with anthropormorphization of their behavior. Can we just see them through their own dedicated lense? With their consistent abuse of one another, filth, rape of juveniles,greed and killing each other and animals they deem below them for FUN, comparison to humanity is OFFENSIVE. Even if we ( humans), unfortunately engage in these behaviors as well. To clarify, I was speaking more about those who claim that they are capable of such thoughts such as 'love' and 'grief', which many people do. Yes, they have the ability to LEARN, but ONLY for the REASON OF OBTAINING SOMETHING TO BENEFIT THEMSELVES! You even give an example of this with the mother USING her infant to get food! Which, I find hard to understand, because babies are in fact LOWER than adults in the feeding heirarchy and would receive punishment for feeding out of turn! I think you saw a VERY special circumstance, where this juvenile was FAVORED by the Alpha male( was it a boy? Could've been next in line to rule!) and normal rules were bent, which is RARE but CAN happen if those in charge are FEARED enough, for the others to not object. I'd have to see this for myself. I think there is some missing information! But, like I said, she used this infant (juvenile?) as a tool for her own benefit. They do NOT possess the ability to learn a behavior that would contribute to the benefit of another ( even offspring or the troupe). They CANNOT form thoughts or make decisions based in altruism. That said we have a simularity to GREAT APES, not Old World Monkeys. We share 94% of our DNA with Great Apes. Somehow, this fact is CONSTANTLY confused with monkeys, as you even stated in your rebuttal. MOST of what they do is based in INSTINCT, which is hard wired in the brain. Other behaviors ARE learned by watching other monkeys ( mimicking). Hence, the term, 'monkey see, monkey do'. VERY rarely does an animal create a fully free formed thought. That is FACT. Extenuating circumstances would have to exist for this to occur. They cannot weigh the outcome of a behavior through cause and effect either. To do that, monkeys would have to be pre-cognitive! Since they cannot think beyond the present moment, that is IMPOSSIBLE! The day that happens however, I WILL be the FIRST person to leave Planet Earth! I appreciate your respectful and intelligent response, fellow human. I am of the position to hopefully educate people about the the macaques' TRUE nature. When most become aware of it, this animal becomes repugnant. Which, imho, they ARE. I've never witnessed some of the WORST actions from any creature on this Earth other than the macaque. That's not judging them by human standards either. For example, watching them drink urine, straight from another's genitals when fresh water was mere steps away was just mind blowing! The kidnapping and systematic torturing to death of another of lower rank for fun was incomprehensible. We now have gangs of marauding monkeys laying in wait and attacking people for food, now that hand outs have dried up due to Covid. I, personally, cannot let another human, ignorantly, love and defend a creature capable of such abhorrent behavior. If one decides to love those things after receiving that knowledge, one should have their head examined. Do you see any redeeming qualities in these things? I'm curious about what monkey lovers ( who seem to understand their behavior a bit, like you) actually see in them. Perhaps you could enlighten me? Blessings to you in these unprecedented times! Stay safe and healthy, please!

[@GGdmk]

@@breshannondevereaux5712 Thank you for your extensive reply. I agree with you that my prior comment that you may feel in some way threatened could be incorrect, and I believe I alluded to that when I said you “may feel”. You yourself have just stated in your reply that you take issue with macaques “being compared or judged by human standards”. You further state that “comparison to humanity is OFFENSIVE”, meaning offensive to yourself because it would be remiss for you to suggest all humans are offended by my thinking monkeys can possibly think in similar ways. You also commented that macaques kill for fun, but killing for “fun” does not fall under the category of being necessary for survival. As for your own opinion that they are filthy, commit rape on juveniles, are greedy, etc, it seems you have a personal and strong dislike of macaques specifically. If that is your opinion, I take no issue because you’re entitled. My original comment was quite benign and based on my personal enjoyment in watching monkeys. I honestly cannot find logic in anyone becoming offended or irritated by my stating that I find primates fascinating, nor by saying that they seem like they think in similar ways to humans. That said, you appear to be quite educated, and I appreciate educated conversation with others. That said, I do not claim to be a Primatologist. I simply developed an interest in monkeys and took the time to do a lot of research. In doing so, I’ve read multiple studies on macaques and other primates, but not enough to claim to be anything more than somewhat knowledgeable. I’ve also watched many hours of videos of mainly old world monkeys, and I’ve been able to see common behaviors in infant monkeys and infant humans. I’m completely against the practice of humans stealing infant monkeys and trying to make them behave like people (I.e.bipedal walking and wearing clothes). I should quickly mention that the mother macaque I spoke about used not just one of her offspring, but three of her babies, to avoid being hurt by higher ranking individuals during times food was being thrown to the group. And, yes it is unusual that the babies were able to get away with it, but her babies were all extremely small, resembling infants in size likely due to malnourishment. Anyway, I am guessing you have either experienced or witnessed the problems with over populations of monkeys living amongst humans in certain areas, and the damage and destruction they cause. I do not deny the horrible problems the monkeys are bringing to those people. But you yourself have stated that the behavior of the monkeys is to survive. The monkeys’ natural habitats have been encroached upon by human population explosions. Humans have instigated a great deal feeding the monkeys as well. Macaques, like humans, are adaptable and resourceful, and they use those abilities to continue to survive. Survival is the most primal instinct in all animals. Do I appreciate monkeys? yes. I love most animals, but not all. I don’t much like chickens. I find them disgusting, but I don’t wish to see them hurt or wiped off the face of the earth. You mentioned juvenile rape in macaques. Bonobo chimpanzees have been known to engage in sexual behaviors with younger bonobos, and it is common for them to also engage in homosexual sex. As a matter of fact, homosexuality has been observed throughout nature. It’s been observed in deer, seals, birds, penguins, and many other creatures including some insects. You can confirm this with a simple search on google. Lastly, you said you cannot LET another human ignorantly love and defend a creature capable of such abhorrent behavior. Humans are creatures capable of such abhorrent, and far worse, behavior,. And those humans that behave that way almost always do it for their own betterment or for their own pleasure. I’m not sure why you feel you have the right to in any control what others love and defend, nor why you feel it’s ignorant to do so, but I understand having passionate feelings about something, so I’ll chalk it up to your passionate dislike of monkeys getting the best of you. I don’t know what you have experienced, but I do know it’s possible you have a very real and valid reason for feeling as you do. I will continue to appreciate monkeys, not due to ignorance, but due to knowledge. I likely should have my head examined, but monkeys have nothing to do with that fact. 😉. I too wish you good health in these unprecedented times. Take care.

[@breshannondevereaux5712]

@@GGdmk Again, your intelligent and well thought out, respectful response is appreciated. If I may address the 'let' comment and your believing that my intent is to control another human being. Perhaps I used the wrong word. I did not mean let, as in 'allow'. I meant 'let' as in I wouldn't let a vision impaired person walk into traffic without a warning. I feel it as almost a personal responsibility to educate people about their true nature. Some VOs do not record anything that could hurt their wallet. This one-sided presentation of these creatures often creates these fan clubs that are VICIOUS towards those of us who dislike the macaque. Even wishing harm and death upon our children! I also, am not a primatologist. However, my mother was a zoologist when I was young. I studied, literally at her knee several animals as I joined her at her employment as a zookeeper. I had a very unusual childhood. Her absolute LOVE was for the elephant. Gorillas were in second place. I had a great deal of exposure and interaction with primates. I found alot of them difficult to like. However, the macaques brand of politics particularly bothered me, and STILL does at 45 yrs of age. Yes, I am QUITE aware of the sexual behaviors of Banobos, including their homosexual practices. But, imho, I think you missed one important piece of information: Banobos use sex as a means of bonding and communicating among troupe members. This can also include signifying rank. I haven't heard of violent RAPE, the way I described the macaque engaging in. Seeking out an offspring to torment, rape and abuse because the Alpha has decreed that only HE may breed this year? I also know that primates masturbate. Why not that action to relieve tension and frustration? Instead, HURTING something HELPLESS is MORE SEXUALLY SATIFYING? That's HORRIBLE! I don't care what species you are! I support your appreciation of this creature. I do it out of respect for your opinion, intelligence and integrity. I can do nothing BUT respect you! Again, you ARE correct. Primates ARE FASCINATING. They MUST be, because I'm STILL observing them even though I REALLY hate them! Well, not all of them anyway. Macaques are God's ( Nature's) mistake. The behaviors the display in captivity is even WORSE! The infant mortality rate was extremely high. New mother's born in captivity were HORRIBLE to their offspring! Some gave birth and ATE their baby. Some gave birth and abandoned it, even punishing another troupe member for trying to lend assistance. Another mother, in a 'fit' of some kind, chewed off all of her infant's fingers and toes. It was then abandoned and left to die. Like I previously stated, I don't know of another animal that is so psychologically fragile. Worse, display signs of trauma when treated with love and kindness. Not to change our subject, but Pygmy Marmosets are a psychological anomalie as well. I was told of an incident where a mated pair were expecting. A multiple birth occurred with much delight for all involved! The triplets were rare for the tiny monkeys and very difficult for dad. The third baby born had issues. Deformities of it's legs and tail and a cleft palat as well ( I ,think) . Anyway, long story shory short, the HEALTHY baby was neglected and outright IGNORED. When presented with it's offspring that desperately needed to nurse, they BOTH turned their backs upon the perfect but fading offspring in favor of eating their fecal matter! The unhealthy one eventually succumbed as well. Only the marmosets know why they did what they did. Anyway, I don't feel threatened by them, more by those that choose to place this awful creature on a pedestal by hiding information and behavior! Painting them in this light of benevolence and charm only for monetary benefit. The whole monkey channel phenomenon has gotten WAAAAY out of hand! VOs, competing for viewers have filmed with certain agendas in mind, even going so far as to create 'drama' to film, creating macaque 'soap operas' if you will. This has caused the casual monkey appreciator into militant 'protectors' that encourage human interference and feeding. I'm not against the filming of them. Don't get me wrong! I AM against feeding them AND of the mental manipulation these VO's videos are causing. I just wish that HONESTY and INTEGRITY were included. I LOVE MOST animals. I have an AMAZING dog ( Chihuahua/ Pekingnese mix: a Pikachu!) 3 fish tanks, including one for fresh water shrimp. Finally, I rescued 4 PNW Tree Frogs, all of which are TERRIBLY spoiled and adored. I also LOVE chickens! I had a great experience getting to know one, when I was around 5. Bubbles was HIGHLY intelligent, and even POTTY TRAINED. If she had to go, she'd peck your foot gently until you got up. Then, she'd walk over to the patio door and patiently wait on her chosen human to let her out into the back yard. Business taken care of, she'd come back inside. At night, cuddling a warm, purring chicken was comforting. Yes, purring. When chickens are content and relaxed they make a humming like noise that would relax me instantly. Yes, chickens can be disgusting. However, Bubbles was bathed regularly and her yard was maintained well to prevent pests from developing. This was a pampered, former 'show' chicken afterall. If she REALLY liked you, you'd find an egg gifted on your pillow! GEESE, on the other hand, are DEMONS dressed in feathers! I don't know why more people haven't used them instead of guard dogs! Territori al as they are, they'll run off ANYONE they believe doesn't belong on your property! Anyway, back to macaques. Are you aware of the massive troupe causing problems in Florida? Apparently, in the 1930s, some Moron, tried to create an attraction on a tiny island. He brought 6 Rhesus macaques for this purpose. Well, monkeys SWIM and these monkeys left that island. Today that 6 have become over 700. They are coming closer and closer to human populated areas. This shouldn't be happening! There's PLENTY of food and these haven't been hand fed! So, even though we humans HAVE encroached on their land, alot of monkeys seek out humans anyway. Garbage cans, land fills, crops, gardens and orchards becoming their targets and putting the owners of property into horrible circumstances. Several reports of attacks on children and even adults abound in Asian news papers. Some are incredibly tragic. But, instead of a culling and population control, a feeding is staged. Offerings are made to Hanuman with the hopes of appeasing an angry god. India was never known for it's cleanliness. But imagine a heavily populated city, even MORE congested with macaques! Their constant bickering screwing, defecating and destruction a constant factor. Power outages happen ALL THE TIME because the power lines are macaque highways. When one makes a wrong move, half the city could go without power for a while! Anyway. Thanks again for the debate, Dena! You are a RARE human, my friend. Be well!

All u have to do is forward the video all the way to the end. Let the last few seconds of the video play out then when its fully done the replay button will appear. Once u click the replay button it will start the video again without ads. I promise it works. I do it ALL THE TIME LOL let me know how u make out

Totally ridiculous. An animal cannot be a "cousin" of humans because we are far above animals, we are created by, and in the image of, Almighty God. This truth is scoffed at by the ignorant, and evolution is taught as truth, even though Darwin himself on his deathbed renounced evolution as a mistake! He became a Christian before he died, asking for and receiving full forgiveness.
